Now here's a kit with some heft!

Cast in white metal from patterns that were painstakingly handcrafted in brass by a master craftsman. This is a well-researched model of a rarely modeled prototype. These tiny locomotives were even found plying the underground rails of the Chicago Tunnel Company!

Would make a great flatcar load, or use it to inject some life into a mining scene on your layout. You'd be amazed at how much detail and operation you could pack into a tiny standalone layout (even in 1/2" scale) with this diminutive loco.

The kit is designed to be assembled easily, and it will run on HO scale track; approximating the 24" gauge of the prototype.

**RESERVATION PRICE** Final price for the unpowered model will not exceed $150 USD.

Yep, fantastic model, but the postage across the pond to us limeys is going to kill it.

Who's going to sneak it in their luggage for me? :p:p

Actually... Approx. $20 USD to ship this to the UK. Now go buy it with a clear conscience. LOL

Cheers,

Unfortunately, there will be a £8 to £15 handling fee to collect the tax when it comes into the UK..
20% to be added to the total (including the handling fee). :oops::(

Nice little loco, though.

Though hopefully it will be sold to us as a tax free export.

½" to 1', running on 'HO' track is regarded as Gn15........ 15" gauge prototype. Nice model, though, hope it goes well for you.
